The method 411 can continue to transmit the first one at block 451 prior to the consumer viewing. The playback data stream is streamed to a data processing device such as a laptop, palmtop, personal digital assistant, mobile telephone, PED, wireless network terminal, or some other form of dedicated audio-video playback device. With respect to the apparatus of the present invention, the method 411 can include transmitting metadata related to the first playback data stream and/or executable programs to the data processing apparatus. To generate a second playback after receiving the original data stream at block 431 The data stream, the method 411 can include encoding, at block 465, the original data stream as a first playback data stream (eg, using MPEG-2 encoding) Then, at block 471, the second playback data stream can be stored, usually in the electrical memory for viewing by the consumer. The method 411 can include decoding the second playback data stream as a block at block 475. The final playback data stream, and the last playback data stream is transmitted to the television set at block 485 (e.g., a digital television receiver is assumed). Alternatively, the method 4 can be included in block 481 conversion or via digital to analog conversion. The playback stream is a television signal (e.g., NTSC 'ATSC, or pal)' and transmits the television signal to the television at block 485. Of course, other analog signal formats can be used in place of NTSC, 19 1308460 ATSC, or PAL-specific formats. Figure 5 is a machine diagram depicting a process and a selective method of translating according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this example, the method is characterized by generating a playback stream in a string 1 manner instead of at the same time Or in an overlapping manner, =, the party &amp; 50 may include receiving the original signal at block 515, selecting a particular channel in the block, and converting the original signal to the original at field 525. The stream of the bee, and the source 531 receives the original stream. By this time, the method shown in Fig. 5 is similar to the method shown in Fig. 4, however, at this time, the two embodiments differ. Block 5 31, in order to generate a second playback stream after receiving the original stream, the method 511 may encode the source stream as a second playback stream (e.g., using an MPEG-2 encoder) at block 535, and store at block 541. The second playback data stream, typically in the electrical memory. For consumer viewing, the method 511 can include decoding the second playback data stream as a final playback data stream at block 545 and transmitting at block 555. The last playback data is streamed to the television (eg, using a digital television). Optionally, the method 511 can include decoding the second playback data stream as a final playback data stream at block 545 and transforming at block 551 to convert the last playback data stream to a television signal using digit to analog conversion (eg, NTSC, ATSC). , or PAL), and transmit the television signal to the television at block 5 55. As described above, other signal formats than NTSC, ATSC or PAL can be used. When the second playback stream is decoded at block 545 to provide the final playback stream, the method 511 can include converting the original stream 20 1308460 stream to a sampled stream (e.g., using a resampler) at block 565. And encoding the sampled data stream at block 5 71 to generate a first playback data stream (e.g., using the same MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 stoner horseware as used in block 535), and storing the block at 575 The first playback data stream is typically used in a memory included in the consumer appliance for viewing the second playback stream, so implementing the method 511 typically produces a decoding of the second playback stream to provide the final playback data. The second playback data stream is stored before the stream, and then the last playback data stream is transformed into a sampled data stream. Prior to the consumer viewing, the method 511 can continue to transmit the first playback data stream to any of the laptop, palm, personal digital assistant, mobile phone, PEDs, wireless network terminal, or A portable data processing device for a dedicated audio-video playback device. As previously described = relative to the apparatus m 511 of the present invention, the metadata associated with the first playback data stream and/or executable programs can be included to the portable data processing device. Referring to Figures 1 and 2, it is readily understood that another embodiment of the present invention can include an object 1 q Q, 9 0 r \ ^ 9 239, such as a computer, a memory system, a disk or a disc.
